Hey Nerdgasm fans this video will show you an awesome method I learned about last night that allows you to add another spool of PLA to your Ultimaker (or scraps for that matter) without breaking the filament and keeping your print going! I ran into a problem where my PLA was low and I only had a few feet which wasn't good for much so I was just going to toss it and feed a new roll into the machine. Instead of doing that I bonded the end of the filament from the old roll to the start of the filament on the new roll. This worked like a dream and allowed me to save some of my PLA!
Let me know if you have any questions down in the comments and please view my other videos ranging from 3D printing to gaming and technology! Thanks again for watching and I hope you enjoyed the video enough to like, favorite and subscribe and share with your friends.
Ultimaker has been an amazing company and the support they have given me is second to none and this printer has been an absolute gem and work horse! I use it a lot and have yet to have a single problem with it that could not be overcome with a simple solution. What a great piece of engineering!
